First, I've tried to talk him outta using XP, wich he is, 'cuz it is 1:st generation software from M-soft, and I've had problems with that in the past ...He refuses to go back to -98.

Now, The thing crashes when he's logging of, or to be more correct, it freezes. He has to disable the soundcard everytime he's logging of to stop the freeze...Is there any driver to fix this ?. I've beean around to a zillion forums to get an answer, but now I have to admit to my lack of knowledge.

Can U help ??

P-man

You start to wonder if you really know yourself, when you smell your exkrements...

Hmmm....he has to disable the soundcard every time? That tells me that maybe something like the 'Soundblaster emulation' is trying to st3@lz0r the IRQ from something really important, like the network card. I had this happen and when I went into device manager and disabled the emulation, I never had a problem after that. The only other thing I can think of is to find out what IRQ it's conflicting with and figure out what to change it to.

Hope this helps and tell him to go to linux!

We the willing, led by the unknowing, have been doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have done so much with so little for so long that we are now qualified to do just about anything with almost nothing.
